Samuel York-My Brother-

Adventure. The first word I said. I laid in my cradle at night and my mum came in an I spoke the word "Adventure". Nobody knows where it came from but I just said it out of the blue. My names Elena by the way, I'm 13 years old and I have a brother called Samuel, he's 15. Sam was 4 when I said the word "adventure" apparently it was his first word too. He said he didn't know where it could have come from either. What was your first word, go on I'll wait bet you'll say "mummy or daddy" told you I kno
w. Most babies say them words but not me and Sam.

When we were younger me and Sam were best friends and you could never split us apart until the Friday the 13th of October 2012. He went out trick-or-treating with me and because I was 8 and he was 10, we had child minds, stupidity,brainless,idiotic minds. We went to the haunted house at the end  of Blossom avenue (our street) and we carelessly walked right on in.  All of you know that Friday the 13th is always a bad night but we didn't know that we were stupid kids. Sam claimed he saw a person walk into the basement which was below us. I said to him "Sam your scaring me stop it!" But he ignored me he walked down the dull and dark stairs and went into the basement. I didn't dare follow as mother always told me "stay near the paths you know." After 10 seconds or him entering the basement I heard a spine tingling Shriek for help. It sounded like Sam. I ran down the stairs to find him. Gone. Abducted. Kidnapped. Killed.Disappeared. The only words that came to my head  when I saw two pairs of footprints heading near the furnace. I sprinted back home to tell mother what had happened but couldn't find her so I had to go to the neighbours house for them to call 911. Police and ambulances came to the scene and asked me a lot of questions about "why we came here" "what happened" I was In intense Shock. As I had a blanket put round me I told them "he loved adventure  and he went into the basement because he thought he saw a person walk by." I was only 8 I told them I'm only 8 I kept repeating to them. But nobody listened. I felt like I was trapped in a clear box and everyone just looked at me but never heard my screams.E-I-G-H-T I finally screamed to see everyone look at me. I felt lightheaded as if I screamed to much. I fell. I felt my head hit the floor. I must have hit it hard. As I was rushed to hospital, in a coma.
